Hi, I noticed a thread from a couple of days ago w/ this subject:

   Re: how to avoid concurrent multirecs of the same program on hd and 
sd channels?

where this issue was loosely touched on, only it was from a user who 
basically was trying to stop something from happening that I really want 
to happen (at least in the short term).

I'm having some reliability problems with tuning through my HDHR to 
digital Comcast channels and possibly also problems with the listings 
flaking out as attached to those channels.

I still have analog access to the analog Comcast channels and would like 
certain shows to attempt to always record on both the Comcast digital 
channels *and* the (separate PVR350) analog tuner in case the digital 
recording fails (which, to my great vexation, has been happening a bit 
too much lately).

My WAF is sinking fast and I'd like to have an analog backup until I get 
things smoothed out.

Any suggestions on this other than doing manual overrides each week or 
for each airing of each show?

I'm running Mythbuntu 10.04 and 'mythbackend --version' returns this:

MythTV Version   : 24158
MythTV Branch    : branches/release-0-23-fixes
Network Protocol : 56
Library API      : 0.23.20100314-1
QT Version       : 4.6.2

Thanks for your attention!
